L2L goes TIFF 2012 Cluj-Napoca
Today Stephanie an me arrived here in Romania for the Transylvanian International Film Festival. Lionel, our son becomes 6 months tomorrow and this is the first plane ride for us three. All went well (no bytes yet.-). We got picked up at the airport and we were completely overwhelmed about the fact that they even thought of the child seat in the shuttle (which we can keep till the end of the trip). So a great welcome here in Cluj by the very well organised and gentle festival staff. The first impression of the town, especially the old town in which everything around TIFF takes place, is that it feels really cosy and charming. On our first walk through the town we liked the omnipresent posters of TIFF on which they have a bilingual festival say embedded, which reminds me of the Russian ferrytales my mother used to tell when I was a kid. It says:
“WHEN AT TIFF FILMS I WAS FED WATCHED THEM ALL TILL I DROPPED DEAD.”
Tomorrow I try to take a picture with my phone(here the promised pic).
Here the screening times of ‘Login2Life’ or in Romanian ‘A Doua Viaţă’. After the screening a Q & A follows (if the director shows up.-)
June 2nd 2012, 7.45 pm at Cinema Odeon 5 Cineplex Cluj-Napoca

Here a small post screening note: I have to compliment the Cluj audience. They showed up on midday thought 25°C and sunny conditions and then the Qs were the best I was ever asked after a L2L screening. Big props to you. Here some pics of the 1st Q&A (out of 2) and then much better of a very nice event which took place yesterday night: “Cine-concert Georges Méliès” outside of Cluj-Napoca (30km) in the yard of a wonderful ruined castle. All in all TIFF 2012 was one of the best fstivals I ever attended. Thx so much.

Login 2 Life goes Australia @ Input 2012
Hiyas dear readers of our blog. Great News again – after our invitation to FIPA Television Festival in Biarritz and our recent partnership with world sales agent Autlook Films we are glad to announce that ‘Login 2 Life’ has been selected to attend the Input 2012 International Television Program Conference in Sydney, Australia.
We feel privileged to have been selected for this conference of leading international broadcast professionals, creators and experts. Director Daniel Moshel will personally attend the event together with commissioning editor Lucas Schmidt – in case you’re there this will be your chance to meet the makers in person. The conference will take place from May 7th to May 11th in Sydney.
Check out the selection of programmes and more information on the INPUT homepage.
LOGIN2LIFE is distributed by Autlook Filmsales
After the festival premiere in Biarritz, France we are now very happy to announce that our film joined one of the best documentary film distributor known on the international market (Thank you Pavel so much:-)
So if you or your sister are interested in our film for any purpose (TV broadcast, educational, festival, internet …) The wonderful guys and gals from Autlook Filmsales deal with all your requests. Right now we’re producing a 56 Minute Version of L2L to please all the TV stations round the world who are more interested in short docs than in long ones. It’s interesting that the ratio is devided up like this: 70% buy 60 minutes docs and the rest spend the time to play the long format too. Amazing, isn’t it? We hope that the impact on our doc will spread our flick round the globe. We keep you posted here, when L2L pops up somewhere near next to you. Let’s celebrate…
A kind of ‘LOGIN2LIFE goes FIPA2012′ diary
I arrived today afternoon in Biarritz. A decent wheather 13°C and a warm brise from the Atlantic ocean welcomed me here. It’s a pity that my producer colleagues from Eidolon Entertainment can’t join me here (thinking of you and sending you also some pics). For me it’s a strange feeling to return to Biarritz because the past three times when I was here the intention was surfing. Or better to say: Learning how to surf(Never managed to catch a damn wave in 7 weeks paddling .-)
So it is very odd to come here for presenting L2L. And it’s a great opportunity for us to start because I have to admit that the festival is bigger than I thought it is. They celebrate this year their 25th anniversary and you can see that they try to raise the flag high. Before I even managed to set a step on the ground in Biarritz I already met a filmaker from Israel (Naomi from Black Sheep) while waiting for the transfer flight in Paris who is also presenting a film here at the festival. After we were picked up gently at the Biarritz airport we directly received our ‘badge professionnel’ from wonderful organization team member Florence Girot in the picturesque festival headquarter at the Biarritz Casino (see pic in older post, wonderful view onto the beach, I can tell you). Then the eve came and I joined the opening ceremony in the Gare du Midi ( a cinema with more than 1500 seats). It was pretty stuffed with audience. They presented the key players of the festival and the jury of the competition program. I made a picture of the stage and of the face who is head of the ‘creative documentary’ competition section named Inês de Medeiros. So now I know where I have to send my prayers to.-) After this formal opening ceremony they really opened the festival with the interesting pilot (first episode of the suspenseful french series named ‘Homes de l’ombre’, content: after the assassination of the french president, the new elections are dependant on two rivals communication agents …)
After this full impact day I saved myself from extiction and I enjoyed a wonderful french dinner in the ‘Bar du Jardin’, which ended with my favourite dessert ‘creme brulle’ which is directly responseble for the fact that I’m sitting here after midnight and writing this nonesense. I hope I’ll be able to write more posts during my stay here. At least when we receive an award I’ll do this for sure:-)
